Refugee Resettlement in the U.S. examines the multifaceted aspects of refugee resettlement, delving into the historical, political, and social dimensions that shape this humanitarian endeavor. Covering the complex history of resettlement policies to current challenges faced by refugees and host societies, the book provides a detailed exploration of the efforts to integrate refugees across different national landscapes. Featuring seven chapters, the book scrutinizes policies from the United Nations level down to state implementations, offering insights on immigration and naturalization processes, and comparing approaches to integration in the United States and other countries through case studies and current research. Additional chapters address the evolution of public opinion toward refugees, the interplay between federalism and state policies, solutions to integration obstacles, and the factors influencing such policies and perceptions, including media framing and political discourse. Providing students with a foundation in refugee policy analysis, an appreciation of the profound challenges faced by displaced populations, and an understanding of integration frameworks, Refugee Resettlement in the U.S. is an ideal resource for courses and programs in political science, sociology, and international relations.
